This pattern is a petpeeve of mine. I don't consider this best practice
and so most don't have these prefixes. Very inconsistent.
At best this is useless and noisey that you have to parse because the
information is also in the stack trace.
At worse these are misleading because they're highlighting something
internal (like validateDOMNesting) which even suggests an internal bug.
Even the ones public to React aren't necessarily what you called because
you might be calling a wrapper around it.
That would be properly reflected in a stack trace - which can also
properly ignore list so that the first stack you see is your callsite,
Which might be like `render()` in react-testing-library rather than
`createRoot()` for example.
Previously, `<Context>` was equivalent to `<Context.Consumer>`. However,
since the introduction of Hooks, the `<Context.Consumer>` API is rarely
used. The goal here is to make the common case cleaner:
```js
const ThemeContext = createContext('light')
function App() {
return (
<ThemeContext value="dark">
...
</ThemeContext>
)
}
function Button() {
const theme = use(ThemeContext)
// ...
}
```
This is technically a breaking change, but we've been warning about
rendering `<Context>` directly for several years by now, so it's
unlikely much code in the wild depends on the old behavior. [Proof that
it warns today (check
console).](https://codesandbox.io/p/sandbox/peaceful-nobel-pdxtfl)

**The relevant commit is 5696782b428a5ace96e66c1857e13249b6c07958.** It
switches `createContext` implementation so that `Context.Provider ===
Context`.
The main assumption that changed is that a Provider's fiber type is now
the context itself (rather than an intermediate object). Whereas a
Consumer's fiber type is now always an intermediate object (rather than
it being sometimes the context itself and sometimes an intermediate
object).
My methodology was to start with the relevant symbols, work tags, and
types, and work my way backwards to all usages.
This might break tooling that depends on inspecting React's internal
fields. I've added DevTools support in the second commit. This didn't
need explicit versioning—the structure tells us enough.
I'm trying to get rid of all meta programming in the module scope so
that closure can do a better job figuring out cyclic dependencies and
ability to reorder.
This is converting a lot of the patterns that assign functions
conditionally to using function declarations instead.
```
let fn;
if (__DEV__) {
fn = function() {
...
};
}
```
->
```
function fn() {
if (__DEV__) {
...
}
}
```
The old version of prettier we were using didn't support the Flow syntax
to access properties in a type using `SomeType['prop']`. This updates
`prettier` and `rollup-plugin-prettier` to the latest versions.
I added the prettier config `arrowParens: "avoid"` to reduce the diff
size as the default has changed in Prettier 2.0. The largest amount of
changes comes from function expressions now having a space. This doesn't
have an option to preserve the old behavior, so we have to update this.
This enables the "exact_empty_objects" setting for Flow which makes
empty objects exact instead of building up the type as properties are
added in code below. This is in preparation to Flow 191 which makes this
the default and removes the config.
More about the change in the Flow blog
[here](https://medium.com/flow-type/improved-handling-of-the-empty-object-in-flow-ead91887e40c).
This setting is an incremental path to the next Flow version enforcing
type annotations on most functions (except some inline callbacks).
Used
```
node_modules/.bin/flow codemod annotate-functions-and-classes --write .
```
to add a majority of the types with some hand cleanup when for large
inferred objects that should just be `Fiber` or weird constructs
including `any`.
Suppressed the remaining issues.
Builds on #25918
* Facebook -> Meta in copyright
rg --files | xargs sed -i 's#Copyright (c) Facebook, Inc. and its affiliates.#Copyright (c) Meta Platforms, Inc. and affiliates.#g'
* Manual tweaks
* Remove object-assign polyfill
We really rely on a more modern environment where this is typically
polyfilled anyway and we don't officially support IE with more extensive
polyfilling anyway. So all environments should have the native version
by now.
* Use shared/assign instead of Object.assign in code
This is so that we have one cached local instance in the bundle.
Ideally we should have a compile do this for us but we already follow
this pattern with hasOwnProperty, isArray, Object.is etc.
* Transform Object.assign to now use shared/assign
We need this to use the shared instance when Object.spread is used.
* Add NewContext module
This implements a reverse linked list tree containing the previous
contexts.
* Implement recursive algorithm
This algorithm pops the contexts back to a shared ancestor on the way down
the stack and then pushes new contexts in reverse order up the stack.
* Move isPrimaryRenderer to ServerFormatConfig
This is primarily intended to be used to support renderToString with a
separate build than the main one. This allows them to be nested.
* Wire up more element type matchers
* Wire up Context Provider type
* Wire up Context Consumer
* Test
* Implement reader in class
* Update error codez
